Was already full of limit.
Including non self contained vehicles. We stopped n used toilet near by - only one toilet open (after 7pm) but was clean with toilet paper. We moved on overnight n didn’t stay

Very nice view of the sea, but the toilets are closed at night.
Campsite an official parking lot (self-contained only), perfect for one night!!

My favourite Freedom camping site of those we staying in during our 6 weeks tour.
We arrived first (one only allowed) and, but the next morning had been joined by 2 others. We had taken photos to show we were first there, but the council obviously weren't too bothered on the Saturday we stayed.

What could be better, sitting there watching the pod of Orchas swimming between us and Kapiti Island or strolling along the beach, or eating the excellent fish and chips, freshly cooked, from the shop in Howell Road watching the sun go down - hmm, difficult choice.

Loses one point only because the footpath went past our back door, but the people were friendly :)
